Discount supermarket Lidl has revealed plans for its first pop-up store at London Fashion Week.
The retailer, called Patisserie Lidl, will be coming to the UK capital to sell a limited edition leather bag, priced at £50, with all proceeds going to the NSPCC.
The store will be selling the Lidl x Nikolas Bentel croissant bag for two days, which previously sold out in less than two minutes, with croissants priced at 59p each.
Designed by Nikolas Bentel, the pastry-inspired bag pays homage to the Lidl croissant, which sells an average of 122 croissants per minute, according to Grocery Gazette.
He gained support from Jordan Stephens of the recently reunited Rizzle Kicks, who sported this unique creation.
